What cookies are
They are not just a biscuit
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They can be used to remember preferences, support essential site functions, and measure how the site is used. Cookies may be set by us (first-party cookies) or by third parties whose services are used on the site (third-party cookies).
Cookie categories we use
not just chocolate chip
The site uses the categories below. Availability of each category depends on your consent choices and the features you use.
- Strictly necessary cookies: required for core site functions and security, and cannot be switched off through the cookie banner
- Preferences cookies: remember choices such as region or display settings where applicable
- Analytics cookies: help us understand site usage and improve content and performance
- Functional third-party cookies: support embedded content or tools where used, depending on your consent
- Analytics cookies may be set by Google Analytics (GA4) if you consent to analytics tracking
You can use the cookie settings control on the site to review and change your choices at any time.
How consent works
we like to make sure you are in control
When you first visit the site, you will be asked to set your cookie preferences. Essential cookies are used to provide the site securely. Optional cookies are only set if you choose to accept them. If you decline optional cookies, the site will still work, but some measurement and embedded features may be limited.
- Choose your preferences using the cookie banner
- Continue browsing with your selected settings applied
- Update your choices later using the cookie settings control on the site
Analytics cookies
who doesn't love statistics?
If you consent to analytics cookies, we use them to understand which pages are visited, how visitors move through the site, and where improvements are needed. Analytics data is used in aggregate to inform content and performance changes. We do not use analytics cookies to identify you directly. Where analytics cookies are enabled, we use Google Analytics (GA4) to measure website usage and improve content and performance.
- Pages visited and time spent on pages
- Referring sources and basic device or browser information
- Interactions such as button clicks and navigation paths (where enabled)
Third-party cookies and embedded tools
its a cookie party, but only the good ones
Some pages may include embedded tools or content provided by third parties, such as video players, maps, or scheduling widgets. These services may set their own cookies or use similar technologies. Where required, these will be controlled by your consent settings, and you can also manage them through the relevant third-party provider settings. Analytics tools such as Google Analytics are provided by third parties and may use cookies or similar technologies where you consent.
How to control cookies

sometimes, its time for change
